I came to feel that large language models like ChatGPT are intellectual Soylent Green — the fictional foodstuff from the 1973 dystopian film of the same name, marketed as plankton but secretly made of people. After all, what are GPTs if not built from the bodies of the very thing they replace, trained by mining copyrighted language and scraping the internet? And yet they are sold to us not as Soylent Green but as Soylent, the 2013 “science-backed” meal replacement dreamed up by techno-optimists who preferred not to think about their bodies. Now, it seems, they’d prefer us not to think about our minds, either. Or so I joked to friends.
